It was the stand-out line of the night in President Obama’s victory speech. Not for its soaring eloquence or unifying theme, but for its bizarre cooptation of the nickname made most famous by Ronald Reagan and for its conferral of said nickname upon a man who has earned less weighty monikers over the past four years.
And when did Joe Biden become "America's Happy Warrior"??? Frickin hysterical.

The sober truth:
Fact check: REAGAN was America's Happy Warrior. Biden is America's Hapless Blowhard.
